A Hinterland Haven:

Tucked away in the rolling green hills of the Sunshine Coast hinterland, The Lakehouse Folk in Montville set the perfect stage for Sharne and Bailey’s unforgettable wedding day. With its whitewashed walls, still waters, and surrounding forest canopy, this hidden gem offered the couple a secluded and storybook setting to say “I do.”

Charming, Intimate and Full of Character:

The Lakehouse Folk isn’t your average wedding venue! It’s a warm, soulful space designed for couples who value authenticity over convention and charm over grandeur. Tucked into the hills of Montville, it offers a deeply personal atmosphere that feels more like a lovingly curated home than a commercial event space. With handcrafted details, vintage textures, and serene lakefront views, it gave Sharne and Bailey a romantic escape grounded in nature. The space strikes a perfect balance between rustic charm and quiet elegance, allowing the focus to remain on what matters most: connection, meaning, and love.

We’re proud to be one of The Lakehouse Folk’s trusted vendors, having captured many beautiful weddings at this unique and intimate venue. With every visit, we discover new light, new angles, and new stories, each as heartfelt and special as the last. Our familiarity with the space allows us to document weddings here with ease, care, and a deep understanding of its natural beauty.

A Place Beside the Lake:

Their ceremony took place beside the lake, where wildflowers lined the aisle and the trees whispered in the breeze. There was a natural softness to the day, from the subtle pastel florals to the gentle way the light filtered through the trees. Every detail felt intentional, but never forced, reflecting the couple’s relaxed and deeply connected love.

A High Quality Gallery:

Sharne and Bailey chose Aesthete Film and Photography’s Intimate Collection, giving them thoughtful coverage in both photo and video, perfectly suited to the relaxed, personal nature of their day. We moved through the celebration with care and intention, capturing the sweeping lake views and soft hinterland light, while staying focused on the quiet, in-between moments that often say the most. From nervous hands to unspoken glances, each frame was approached with sensitivity and purpose. They also added our 35mm film photography add-on, bringing a nostalgic, tactile quality to their gallery. The result is an honest, layered visual record of the day: timeless, textural, and true to who they are.

A Moment by the Water:

As the sun began to dip behind the Montville hills, Sharne and Bailey stepped away from the crowd for a brief moment alone. They walked slowly along the lake’s edge, hand in hand, taking in the calm and letting the day settle around them. The golden light stretched across the water, casting long shadows and soft reflections, while the quiet hum of conversation and laughter carried from the reception behind them. It was a simple moment, unposed, unplanned, but one that felt genuine. No cameras directing them, no one watching, just a pause in the day that allowed them to breathe, take it in, and be present with each other.

Reflection, Rhythm and Romance:

Everything about The Lakehouse Folk reflected Sharne and Bailey’s style, simple, grounded, and full of warmth. The venue’s intentionally relaxed atmosphere allowed their day to unfold without pressure or pretense. From the light-filled indoor space to the gentle flow between ceremony, celebration, and quiet moments in between, it supported the pace and mood of a day that was never rushed. Guests moved easily between the lakefront and the reception area, sharing food, stories, and quiet conversations in a space that felt welcoming and natural. It wasn’t just a setting, it helped shape the rhythm of the day and held space for every part of their story to be told. The Lakehouse didn’t overpower their wedding, it quietly amplified it.

A Love as Natural as the Setting:

Sharne and Bailey’s day was the perfect blend of nature, connection, and quiet beauty. Set in the heart of Montville, their wedding at The Lakehouse Folk captured everything they value most: love, authenticity, and the freedom to do things their own way. With Aesthete behind the lens, these memories are captured to last a lifetime.
